It's so cold!! Another snow is
on the way. We haven't had
a huge amount
this winter.
Yet.
I predict no school tomorrow.
I've been all over the
emotional map
lately.
Funny. That's so not true.
Not just lately! For a long time now. Longgggg time!!!!
Just jumping in.
Found a weight loss help site called
"Sparkpeople". Anyone heard of it?
Know anything about it? I joined but then
when I started making my profile page & stuff,
it got overwhelming. Logged off for now.
I've always wanted to lose weight, but
never want to do the 'work'.
Because it IS work, counting, calculating,
paying attention.
It's so much easier to NOT THINK about
food, eating, any of it.
Of course, do that, and...
you end up looking like me.
Here's a photo of a piece of pottery
my son made for me.
I can't express just how much I love
pottery pieces that my son makes for me.

I love the pottery piece your son did. Funny, I just did a blog entry about losing weight. I don't do diets though. I don't like the radical way they change your diet and routine. Personally, I think for any of it to last it has to be something you can do forever not just until you reach your goal. I've gained a lot of weight since I quit smoking and I thought for sure I was prepared to not do so when I did but yet here I am. Bleh! But, I've made little changes like walking more, cutting out sodas, and being super vigilant about not eating the extras that work their way into the day like donuts and candy and what have you. It's helped tremendously! Good Luck to you however you decide to approach it!
ReplyDeletethinking of you today and praising your honesty in the comment on my blog....
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine what you've been through....
and now the snow....yep, us too....lots of it.....ugghhhhh
I just read your comment on Beth's blog. (I love Beth - she could be a hero of mine.)
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I cried when I read your comment. I have no idea what that would be like, but I could hear your pain. I will be thinking about you and praying for you.
You will get through it. But who knows how long it will take and how hard it will be. Life can certainly be much more difficult than seems neccessary at times!
Hang in there.
Ruth (new friend.)
BTW, I live in Cali, I wish we had snow days!!
Beau is such a sweetheart.
ReplyDeleteI just adore him...and so does my daughter, obviously. LOL
Losing weight is definitely work. It's hard work. And it's frustrating work. Because if you're like me, food is such a source of comfort and happiness.
But...when I had lost that 90 pounds, I felt SO GOOD. Physically, mentally, and emotionally. So I figure the struggle is worth it. Back on the train myself now.
XOXO
Gorgeous pottery! I love the things my kids have made too, best art ever! I have read some things at spark people but never joined so I don't really know anything about it. Go for it! Make time to take care of you! You will feel so much better for it *hugs*
